( this message was accidentally submitted under the subject RE: getpid? Sorry )
I'm having a very strange problem that I'm hoping someone has come across before. I'm using a hash to collect some field values. I want to write the hash values to file, and I want them delimited by the '|' character, so I use my $LineToWrite = join('|', hash_var_1, ..., hash_var_n) . "\n"; I use this hash to get several different lines of field values, so this last statement is in a function that gets called several times. The first time it gets called, everything is fine. However, each time after, I get something like this at the beginning of the $LineToWrite variable: HASH(0x1c67fc4) I also printed out each individual hash value, and I can't find anything like this. What's going on? Any help would be appreciated. Thanks. Sean Rowe -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
